Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a distributed approach to request processing. Specifically, in a typical embodiment, a request is received via a cloud dispatcher, which generates and places a corresponding message in a cloud manager queue associated with a set (at least one) of cloud managers. The message is then placed in a cloud node queue associated with a set of cloud nodes that process the message and provide state information related to request processing in an audit queue associated with an audit database. In addition, cloud manager state information is placed in a dispatcher queue associated with the cloud dispatcher. This state information is used by the cloud dispatcher to determine where to place incoming requests. Under these embodiments, each cloud resource runs self-contained management code and performs actions by receiving instructions from a queue. Thus, the messages may be directed to a specific resource or broadcasted to a 'pool' of resources of which any resource can take the request and process it.
